Key Highlights:
[1] Vijay Devnath, Group General Manager – Infra & Security & CISO, Centre for Railway Information Systems:
+ Collaborating to build AI models tailored to Indian databases will accelerate digital transformation. However, security should be handled by experts, as it lies more in people and processes than in machines.
[2] Alok Shankar Pandey, AGM – IT & CISO, Dedicated Freight Corridor Corporation of India:
+ It is important not to blindly follow trends or feel compelled to adopt every new technology. Instead, we should focus on identifying what is truly business-critical.
[3] Mangesh Mahale, CTO, Ujjivan Small Finance Bank:
+ AI models can play a crucial role in optimizing data center design. From determining the ideal location for vents and temperature monitoring to the placement of racks and monitoring power consumption, AI offers valuable solutions.
[4] Sunil Nair, Head – IT Infrastructure & Information Security, Aster DM Healthcare:
+Enterprises are spending up to 35% of their power purely on cooling systems, largely due to unoptimized data management. By modernizing our infrastructure and partnering to replace legacy systems with more efficient ones, we can significantly reduce power consumption.
[5] S B Singh, General Manager, Bihar State Electronics Development Corporation Ltd.:
+ Key challenges include cooling systems, server sizes, and the growing power demands of data centers. Across the country, we are witnessing significant innovation by the government in IT departments, with the creation of data lakes and other initiatives aimed at addressing these issues.
